ALL ABOUT: PRIVATE LABELING CLEAN BEAUTY WITH US

What exactly is private labeling? Essentially, you partner with a lab and you use their formula as your own. No shame there! Not everyone can be chemists and it makes perfect sense if you’d rather focus on the business side. We have some of the best private label formulas in the world (think cult classic, or criminally clean) available at economic prices. That $80 serum you love? Yeah we sell it for $5/bottle. It’s time for you to take advantage of our expertise and your marketing skills, by scaling to the moon.


This manufacturing route is faster and more budget-friendly than other routes because the formula has already been tested and approved. With their formula, you’re pretty much entering into a long-term relationship. That’s why finding and choosing the right lab is important (look to the cosmetics lab page for more information).
